Page 2 of 2 These are simple, basic lenses designed to offer a great deal of value for the price. You can buy both of them as a package for less than $250 (street price). Individually, the 18-50mm sells for a very affordable $110 (street price) while the 55-200mm sells for less than $150 (street price). Special coatings make these lenses more digital-friendly, and you’ll find an aspherical lens in the 18-50mm enhances performance.
